A charity is warning people to be wary of fraudsters collecting money in its name after a woman in Tonbridge became the latest to be scammed.The cafe customer thought she was donating to Disability Rights UK when she was approached by a young girl presenting as deaf. Also in today’s podcast, a thug who left the mother of his child “unrecognisable” after a ferocious beating told police he had "destroyed her face".He made a harrowing 999 call after he had viciously assaulted his ex-partner with such force that he broke her jaw in three places.Council bosses in Ashford have apologised after a workman buried his cat in a tenant’s garden.The woman said she was left stunned when the subcontractor turned up with a shovel and made the bizarre request during the refurbishment of her bathroom.A Tunbridge Wells mum says she and her children were left upset and disappointed after taking them to see Santa at a tourist attraction only to find it had shut without notice.She says she received a confirmation email that morning - but when they got there it was locked up with no-one in sight. And in football you can hear from Gillingham striker Elliott Nevitt and from boss Mark Bonner ahead of what’s shaping up to be a busy festive period. It all kicks off on Boxing Day when the Gills travel to take on Colchester United.
